• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-size chunks. • Place on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, trim and halve asparagus. • Finely chop garlic. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add pork loin steaks, season with pepper and toss to coat. • Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, add pork loin steaks and cook until cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Remove pan from heat, add honey and toss to coat. • Transfer to a plate, cover and rest for 5 minutes. TIP: Cooking the meat in batches over a high heat helps it stay tender.
• Wipe out and return frying pan to a medium-high heat with drizzle of olive oil. Add asparagus and cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Transfer to a medium bowl.
• To the bowl with asparagus, add mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste and toss to combine.
• Slice pork steak. • Divide spiced pork, roast potatoes and garlicky asparagus salad between plates. • Top pork with creamy pesto dressing. Garnish with flaked almonds. Enjoy!
